  • Was feeling alright this morning with a decent amount of energy. Starting exercising again on my work break but my office is not cooling me down enough.

    Currently running a program (software dev) that’s taking ages to finish so I feel like I’m not putting in enough effort but can’t do much about it.

    Going to paint some miniatures and play BG3 when I get home which is always good.

    Overall I’d say pretty decent and an improvement over my last week :) Just trying to make small improvements to my daily life helps in a big way.







  • I remember reading a comment about this when it was posted elsewhere a while back. They said at the time that the mask was actually not as creepy as we think it is now. We have generations of people that have grown up watching horror movies and playing video games like FNAF that have altered our perception of creepy. In the same way clowns used to not be creepy. The comment also mentioned that since Mickey was a beloved icon for children it actually comforted them to wear a mask in that form. Also it’s worth noting that there were much more horrific things occurring daily for them so this was probably quite tame in comparison.

    This comes from someone else who heard about it from their grandparents so take it with a grain of salt, but it wasn’t necessarily a scary thing for them at the time.


  • This is indeed an unpopular opinion!

    But I’ve worked in fast food so I cannot in good conscience agree with it. I have some appreciation for assertive people with legitimate complaints, but “Karen’s” as we know them are not that. They tend towards illegitimate and illogical complaints because they seem to feel entitled to get what they want, sometimes regardless of what they specifically asked for.

    Nevertheless it’s a hospitality workers endless burden to deal with these types. I understand the specific merits of what your post outlines, I just don’t like it 🙂





  • Just use whatever words you feel like. Unless you’re trying to use the most complex words possible at all times, no one really cares. At best people will think you’re eloquent. At worst, snobbish. But if they think that, then fuck em, who cares. Don’t get hung up on the way you sound. That’ll just breed insecurities
